Setting the water hardness

For trouble-free operation of the coffee machine, and to en

sure that the descaling reminder appears in the right display

at the appropriate time, it is important to programme in the

water hardness. The water hardness indicates how much cal

cium is dissolved in the water. The higher the calcium con

tent, the harder the water is. And the harder the water, the

more often the machine will need to be descaled.

The appliance measures the amount of water which has been

taken in (including the amount required for producing steam).

The amount of water which the machine can process before it

becomes blocked and needs to be descaled will depend on

the water hardness level set. Less water will be processed

with a high water hardness level than with a low water hard-

ness level.

The local water authority will be able to tell you the hardness

of water in your area. Alternatively, you can measure the hard

ness yourself using the enclosed test strip:

Dip the strip in your drinking water for approximately a sec

ond, then shake off any excess water.

The results will be evident after about 1 minute.
